I think you Guy's must not of understood his question. This is going to be his first plane. Not the one he is going to train on. I would go for the Sig 4* 40 if I were you. It will be much more fun to fly as your second plane. Since your dad's cub will be your first. Have fun and it's nice to see another builder being born. I build and only own 2 ARF's that I bought to abuse. I build Giant scale Warbird fighters. My next one is a WWII and Korean War 1/4 scale F4U-1D Corsair with a 10 foot wingspan and a 3W 200cc 20hp gas engine.

Welcome and Good Luck,

Gibbs
